Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

No love for Turris? They've basically just added an easier web management UI alongside lUCI and their devices are specifically designed to run OpenWRT. Also they've sent a fair amount of patches to upstream (search the OpenWRT git repos for authors with @nic.cz email addresses)

I’ve been waiting for them to update the hardware of the Omni’s but they are taking their sweet time.

As it stands I won’t buy a router for that price that is like 5 or 6 years old (or even older?)

Seems like pretty old hardware.
